The Italian American Society of Marco Island is currently accepting applications for a $1,000 scholarship opportunity for a graduating senior from any Collier County High School who will be attending a post-high school education in the Trades (an example would include automotive, diesel, aviation, and marine technology, cosmetology, culinary, electrical, HVAC, plumbing, welding and many others). 

The applicant must be of Italian ancestry/heritage and have a GPA of 3.0 or higher. While all Collier County High School graduates are eligible, priority will be given to students from Marco Island and students from the Marco Island Academy, Lely High, and Naples High School.
